He is such a great teacher! His lessons are NEVER boring! They are always interesting. Depending on what class you take he actively includes Mexican American Subjects. He has a weird/funny sense of humor which help make his class that much easier to attend. Not to mention his class work/Homework is not difficult. He is a harsh (sort of) grader.

I don't recommend taking his class. He assigns four essays a week, and aside from the essays, you have to do a discussion. In the discussion, there are two questions you need to fully answer (essay form) AND you also need to reply to other classmates answers. A total of 8 posts on the discussion weekly. He is also a very hard grader.

If you're well read and a good writer going in, then 2332 with Gonzalez is a breeze. His writing skills are shockingly bad, but he's a funny guy and a fair grader. He assigns a good deal of reading, and quite a lot of writing, so make sure you manage your time to crank out several hundred words a week before taking this class, else you'll fail.
